Hyundai Motor announced on the 13th that it is recruiting schools to participate in Future Mobility School for the first semester of 2027.

Future Mobility School is a student-led, activity-based program developed by Hyundai Motor after it became the first private company to sign an agreement with the Ministry of Education. The program aims to help students learn about innovative technologies such as autonomous driving and robotics and grow into talent who will lead the future of mobility.

Since its launch in 2016, the program has been run at 3,280 schools worldwide, including elementary and middle schools in Korea and schools overseas. Approximately 134,000 students have participated.

Schools wishing to participate in Future Mobility School in the first semester of 2027 can apply from November 16 through December 11 by searching for the Future Mobility School Cafe on Naver and using the application link there.

Classes are offered through an elementary program for students in grades 4 through 6 and regular and short-term programs for middle school students. Depending on the curriculum, classes cover a range of topics and offer a preview of changes in the future mobility environment. A distinctive feature is that each class includes a different type of activity, supported by a variety of teaching materials, such as an autonomous driving mobility kit, a mobility upcycling kit, and a future lifestyle planning document.

The theme of the elementary program for the first semester of 2027 is "A Sustainable Future Lifestyle Created by Future Mobility." The theme of the regular middle school program is "A Future Lifestyle with Mobility," while the short-term middle school program will provide instruction on "Future Mobility Enhanced by Robotics."

Hyundai Motor Senior Vice President Ji Seongwon, Head of Brand Marketing, said, "In Future Mobility School for the first semester of 2027, we aim to offer classes that help students imagine in advance how the future mobility environment may change, with a focus on advanced technologies such as autonomous driving and robotics. We will continue to support the creation of a creative and cultural foundation so that young people can take an interest in future technologies and explore career paths."

Meanwhile, building on the trust and experience it has developed through operating educational programs in Korea, Hyundai Motor has expanded its support to schools across Asia since 2023 in collaboration with the Asia-Pacific Centre of Education for International Understanding (APCEIU). This year, it launched new cooperative projects with the Korean Education Center in France and international joint classes in partnership with the Seoul Metropolitan Office of Education, expanding its support to 48 overseas schools in 21 countries.
